Patent number: 11823201Abstract: A system for intelligent recurring transaction processing and fraud detection comprises an artificial intelligence (AI) platform including machine learning (ML) models that are in communication with server computers. The servers access historical payment transaction data from a transaction database to train the ML models to predict future recurring transactions. The servers receive an authorization request from an acquirer for a payment transaction by a cardholder using a payment device, process the authorization request to the issuer and transmit a response. Transaction data from the authorization request is input into the ML models to predict whether the payment transaction comprises a recurring payment transaction and if so, determine a predicted date of a next recurring transaction. An API call is initiated to the issuer with transaction attributes regarding the next recurring payment transaction prior to the predicted date, and the issuer sends an alert message directly to the cardholder.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2021Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Clive Alan Wintle, Thomas Purves, Prasad Madhukar Gore, Shipra Jha

Publication number: 20230368159Abstract: Cryptocurrencies may be used within the current Four Party Model to settle transactions between a merchant and a consumer who may use or accept fiat and/or cryptocurrency. An intermediary wallet entity may assume the risk of cryptocurrency transactions. For example, a fiat-fiat transaction may follow the usual settlement process of the Four Party Model. In a crypto-crypto transaction, settlement may occur in real time. But in a fiat merchant/crypto customer transaction, settlement may be made from the customer's crypto wallet to an intermediary wallet. Fiat settlement would then occur between the intermediary and merchant following the Four Party Model. In a crypto merchant/fiat customer transaction, a transfer may be made from the intermediary wallet to the merchant's crypto wallet. Fiat settlement between the customer's bank (issuer) and intermediary can happen in the usual settlement process.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 24, 2023Publication date: November 16, 2023Applicant: Visa International Service AssociationInventors: Sachin Cherian MATHEW, Krishna NELLUTLA, Thai Binh DO NGUYEN, Venkata Ramaiah BHEMINENI, Dong Soon Denis KANG
